Tomato Soup with Egg In A Hole

This hearty tomato soup is satisfying on it's own, but topped with an egg in the hole sometimes called nest egg or rocky mountain toast, it is a full satisfying meal any time. You can serve this for a really fun brunch or a light dinner.

Directions

Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer covered for about 10 minutes. (You can puree the soup with an immerssion blender at this point if your kids don’t like tomato chunks in their soup like mine). The soup can be made ahead up to this point and can sit and simmer as long as you nee.

When ready to serve. Turn on broiler. Ladle soup into four wide, shallow oven-proof bowls. Poke a hole 1 1/2 inches in diameter into the center of each slice of bread. Drizzle 1 teaspoon of oil on each slice of bread and place on top of the soup. Crack an egg into each hole. Season with salt and pepper.

Place bowls under broiler and cook until whites are set but yolks are still soft, about 4 minutes. Remove from oven. Sprinkle each serving with chopped basil or parsley.

Alternatively you can cook the egg in a hole in a frying pan to your desired doneness and place on top of the hot soup before serving.

I cooked this soup today for lunch for my kids.
To the garlic and pepper flakes I added a chopped
Onion and 1/2 kilo
Of ground turkey . Then , after the meat was cooked
I added the peeled tomatoes, water and spices.
Instead of slices of bred I used whole wheat bagels that I cut
In half, like this I already had a hole for the egg!
The soup came out great! The kids really liked it!

I also made the soup. Taking only 30 minutes to prepare, it was the most delicious “fast food” I’ve had in ages. Next week I’m going to try it again using Dvora’s suggestion of using a bagel. I come from a long line of bagel bakers. My grandfather was part of the group that introduced bagels to the USA in the early 1900′s. I was even raised living above the bagel bakery. So, any new use for a bagel … I’m up for giving it a try … lol.

I took Dvora’s suggestion and added sautted onions and browned meat to make it a more hearty meal, and I also used crushed tomatoes with basil instead of the peeled so I wouldn’t have to use my immersion blender. The soup got two thumbs up from everyone in my family including the kids! We did not think the egg in the bread added anything and nobody ate the egg part. I was nice having the bread to dip in the soup though!
